Amharc ar fhreagraThe Department of Defence is currently progressing the application for First Registration of this property with the Land Registry.
Upon completion of this application, the property will then be a Registered Title held under a folio, and the Department of Defence will proceed with its disposal. In this regard, the Department would be willing to consider the possibility of transferring the property to Tipperary County Council.
However, the Deputy may wish to note that when the Department previously raised the possibility of transferring the property, the Local Authority indicated that they were not in a position to consider the acquisition of the site.
